Près de 12 ans après être arrivé sur Mars, le rover Curiosity continue de nous émerveiller par ses découvertes !
Il a mis au jour de magnifiques cristaux il y a quelques jours en brisant un rocher avec une de ses roues. Ces cristaux pourraient être composés de gypse. 1/4

Le rover martien Curiosity a approché sa caméra MAHLI du bord d'un affleurement dont la surface présente des roches sombres et claires. Ces dernières pourraient être riches en sulfates.

Le rover Curiosity a brisé une roche en roulant dessus, dévoilant des cristaux clairs et laiteux. La zone étant riche en sulfates, il est très probable que ce soit des cristaux de gypse, parmi les plus beaux que je vois depuis le début de la mission ! 1/3

Martian Memories: Visions of Kodiak

The Kodiak butte captured in Stereo3D by the navigation cameras of the Perseverance rover on April 14, 2022 (Sol 409).

Nature Journal astronomy covers appreciation post

Lunar magnetic field (1972)

The feature article reports a study of the compression of the remanent lunar magnetic field by the solar wind, based on data taken at several Apollo landing sites.

Voyager 1 is sending data back to Earth for the first time in 5 months

https://edition.cnn.com/2024/04/22/world/voyager-1-communication-issue-cause-fix-scn/index.html

For the first time in five months, NASA engineers have received decipherable data from Voyager 1 after crafting a creative solution to fix a communication problem aboard humanity’s most distant spacecraft in the cosmos.

Yay! Thanks, more than 50 years old engineers that thought of almost anything for a mission that was not supposed to last this long… and thanks to the current engineers that are carrying the torch!

Clever intricate diagnosis and remedial work by spacecraft engineers has restored the telemetry transmission functionality of the Voyager 1 probe, 22+ light-hours from Earth. They hope soon to have it returning science data on the Interstellar Medium.

Like Voyager 2, Voyager 1 was launched FORTY-SIX YEARS ago.

Seems like this was the best value-for-money Extended Warranty ever offered.

wow what a fascinating Martian sight, wish there were a dual stereo pair of images to see this one in 3D!

This image was taken by the Left Navigation Camera onboard NASA's Mars rover Curiosity on Sol 4155 (2024-04-14).

Absolutely fascinating Stereo3D view of this Martian landscape.

Many thanks to @PaulHammond51 for finding the right-eye view from the rover's R-Nav Cam.

To get the Stereo3D effect, just let your eyes' line of sight be parallel (not cross-eyed) with left eye in front of left image and right eye in front of right image.

NASA’s Network of Small Moon-Bound Rovers Is Ready to Roll

Construction and testing are complete on the CADRE rovers, which will map the lunar surface together as a tech demo to show the promise of multirobot missions.

Presenting DUST OF OSIRIS, watercolor and ink, 12x12”. Inspired by the Egyptian decorative motifs, the Egyptian Revival movement, and a high-res photo of the opened OSIRIS-REx sample container, containing dust from asteroid Bennu. This has been a labor of love for me, I hope you enjoy it!

Voici Valinor Hills, le champ de dunes qui tapisse le fond de l'ancienne rivière Neretva où repose pour toujours Ingenuity 🚁

Ce matin, la caméra RMI de l'instrument SuperCam a photographié Ingenuity 🚁 sur le champ de dunes Valinor Hills, d'où il ne redécollera plus.
Etrange de voir les deux pales inférieures mais une seule pale au-dessus 😢
